I'm not a gamer, but the language used by the player is funny and likely spot-on. Great energy in this script. The fighting and commentary got a bit long. Like others, I was expecting the player to be someone other than a middle aged man-child. That seems like the most obvious choice.
Your title was spot on. Lol. Your main character was a legend in his own mind. You got laughs out of me. I knew a guy who read those kung fu magazines teaching you moves. He never set foot in a martial studio in his life. I hope and pray he never found himself in a situation where he tried what he learned in those magazines. Lol.
Didn't blow me away and I was a bit getting bored with the language... at first. Once I saw what this guy was doing, it started to sink in that he was indeed the Great Pretender. No real surprises and some repetition of action. As he looks himself in the mirror, I just wanted to see him break into a lame kung fu stance and throw some half-assed punches as he is talking back-back his mum. Made me think of that scene in the "Limey," where those warehouse bullies are stomping on old Terence Stamp. One bully goes, "You come down here with your big, dangerous gun. Yeah, we're quaking, we're quaking!" Well, it was predictable, but spot on in a lot of ways.
I like original character names in that they make things memorable. I will never forget these. While I pretty much saw the ending coming, I had fun getting there.
Wasn’t too thrilled here and it’s probably because knowing if the song is the one by The Platters, then I think I was expecting something totally different. Next, I think you took what could have been an entertaining scene and tried to turn it into a full story. Either way, lot of ass licking and not much story. Entertaining though!
